Date when an action was installed on a computer

(imported topic written by fox5899)

I’m getting request from our clients to see if we can tell on what date does an action complete. I know you can get that information on a single machine, but I need to know this for an entire action, on all machines that were targeted.

Can this be done?

Hi fox,

The information about the time/date that an action completes is stored in the database and it is retrieved when you click on an individual action status, but we don’t have an easy way to report on all of the times with the built-in custom reporting abilities…

Is the purpose of this request: “Management asked me who long it took to patch all 10,000 computers for August’s Patch Tuesdsay”? If not, can you further define the background of this request?
